love this tune, reminds me my father, like too eager beaver, from the recording Kenton with voices

My father ran a 17 piece big band called the Sentimental 17. He would put the band together for a gig with various professional musicians who either just wanted to play or wanted the extra "bread". Danny Stiles, Billy Watrous, Eddie Bert, Gary Wofsey and other phenomenal artist played with the band over the years. This chart is exactly the arrangement the band used with my father on bari sax, playing that low bassy riff through out. His favorite band (and mine) was and is the Stan Kenton Band.

@bbperis335 I feel you people who were so blessed to be so close to these great musicians should write books of the personal their lives. It would give us followers an insight of what inspired them to immortality

A personal friend of my family was Dalton Smith, sitting in the middle of the five trumpeters. Thanks for posting this!
